September 24, 2013

ESCANABA - A 67-year-old Gladstone man who sexually abused a Gladstone girl was sentenced to prison during a hearing in Delta County Circuit Court Monday.

Joseph Gordon Grenier Jr. appeared before Circuit Court Judge Stephen Davis who ordered the defendant to spend three years to up to 15 years in prison on one count of second-degree criminal sexual conduct.

Grenier was also sentenced to 12 months imprisonment on one count of fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct, a high-court misdemeanor. The two sentences are to be served concurrently.

Last month, Grenier pleaded no contest to second-degree criminal sexual conduct in connection with incidents involving a girl under the age of 13 in 2012 in Gladstone.

He also pleaded no contest to fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct involving the same victim between the ages of 13-16 in 2012 in Gladstone.
